When life throws you a curve ball...

Things are going along smoothly when all of a sudden life throws you a curve ball. There are times when everything is going your way and then the unexpected happens. A job is lost, a relationship ends, a friend betrays you, etc. How you react to these curve balls makes all the difference. Don't try to ignore it by pushing it aside but rather embrace it for what it is and face it head on. Remember that running away will only get you so far. This is when your strength of character and positive outlook will move you forward. Try standing a little taller, holding the belief that things happen for a reason. Maybe there is something better, something bigger, something more fulfilling just waiting for you. On the flip side maybe things happen for the sake of happening and you have no control over it. Take responsibility when you can and be willing to accept there is a reason for things happening that you may never understand. Don't forget that life isn't going to throw something at you that you can't handle. It may be hard to overcome, but you can get through it. I believe in you.
